This balisong trainer features skeletonized handles a la 42 with the basketweave pattern. These are the most expensive handles for these balisongs because of the extra work involved. The pattern also provides excellent grip. These are not currently available anywhere else.

These combs have nice, thick tang pins, bearings in the pivots that alleviate blade play and have them flipping like lightning, and the screws have been locked into place before the heads were ground off: these are good, durable flippers, but as with any knife, repeated drops on a hard surface will wreck them.

The trainer blades are obviously not pointed, and are skeletonized to keep the weight down and mimic the feel of a live balisong as closely as possible.
